What bothers me.

First of all: i have a big respect for atc and i know you have a very stressy job but as a foreigner there are some things that really bothers me when i'm going to the UK or Ireland.

I fly commercial non scheduled so i'm not familiar with every airport. Every time when atc gives me a taxi instruction they slap it around my ears with high velocity speed and with an accent i'm not familiar with.

I really appreciate it if atc pronounce it well, not too fast and keep it to the phraseology. I know i sound harsh but i hate it to ask 3 times the same thing. It may sound strange but for a non english speaking person it can be very frustrating.

I hope atc guys will not be offended but i'm sure that there are people recognising this situation.

Thx
